I go to work from 10:30 until 6 a.m.
|
Raking up those dimes and quarters
|
Slinging eggs and ham
|
Scrambled, poached, or over easy
|
Coffee black and strong
|
Jukebox of scratchy records
|
I play 'em all night long
|
|
Eternal blue neon, we're never closed
|
When the world is asleep
|
Darling, come take a seat
|
You can always eat at Joe's (eat at Joe's)
|
|
Here comes old Frank Taylor, smelling like old gin
|
Guess his wife couldn't get him sober
|
It's up to me again
|
Here's a hot top on your coffee
|
Honey, you're a mess
|
I ain't your wife, I ain't your momma
|
But I'll do, I guess
|
|
Eternal blue neon, we're never closed
|
When the world is asleep
|
Darling, come take a seat
|
You can always eat at Joe's (eat at Joe's)
|
|
Hello, Prince Charming, where are you, dear?
|
When will you come in and order biscuits here?
|
Truck drivers, musicians with no place to go
|
I can be your domestic goddess
|
For an hour or so
|
|
Eternal blue neon, we're never closed
|
When the world is asleep
|
Darling, come take a seat
|
You can always eat at Joe's (eat at Joe's)
|
